Town Moor

Had a wander onto the Town Moor last night and walked up onto the hill in the North West corner. Birdwise it was quiet with only Skylark, Wood Pigeon, Carrion Crow, Starling to be seen. There were many Meadow Brown butterfly on the side of the hill facing the setting sun.

tried the next one with flash and although I took half a dozen pics it appeared to have no effect on the butterfly

Also a Six Spot Burnet

and I was surprised at the number of bees apparently taking refuge under the grass flower heads

There were a number of Noon-fly on the fence railings
